Merian C. Cooper (1893–1973)

This was a shortish freebie on Audible which I listened to when getting to sleep. It was very much of its time but actually a lot of fun as an adventure book.

A documentary film (Paramount, 1925).

50,000 nomads cross Persia.

C (Indifferent).

Not bad for an ethnographic film. I wasn't exactly entertained, but it was interesting and surpisingly educational.

I think this is an easy book to read, not to big and wihout difficult language. I think some facts should be more explored like the romance between Ann and Jack, the true intentions of Kong about Ann or some more facts about the tribe of the island. Despite this, I think it's a good book, with nice action scenes and definitly a good classic you should to read.

Short and to the point, Lovelace's novelization (one of the premier movie novelizations to exist) does not add much to the story in the original film, but is still a swift, solid read with some literary quality.
